In the community, he participated in Georgia Tech’s Jackets Without Borders trip in May to help rebuild homes destroyed by Hurricane Maria, organized teammates to assist with a Habitat for Humanity house build in July and has volunteered his time to read to children at local schools.
Stewart is one of 179 semifinalists for the 2018 Campbell Trophy, spanning all levels of college football.
